Personally I think we need to focus on running power in the midfield and all across the ground. Speed and stamina, creates whole field defence across the ground. I think our back line deficiencies are blown way out of proportion. If the ball is coming in quick it's impossible to defend. 2 games that really stick in my mind (because I was at both of them), 2014 Prelim final vs the Swans where we got absolutely flogged. The way the swans moved it inside their forward 50 was impossible to defend. Rohan in particular just put the after burners on time and again. Meanwhile we had Kayne Turner in one of his first handful of games scrapping with his future coach behind play. Any key forward would have had a day out. Fast forward 12 months, we turned the tables and beat them on the same ground in the semi final. The difference was all in our midfield getting on top. Our back line was no different. Go check out the stats. I don't think much has changed. Pressure the ball carrier, stop the silver service delivery inside 50. I think our key defenders are capable enough.
